Just to follow-up on this a bit more.

I misunderstood the results from check's check. I should learn just to 
trust the summary results. The tests passed.

I must have done something wrong in the build before I sent this. 
Re-building libpipeline does cause 'make check' to execute the tests. I 
got one failure. I've talked to the owner of the project, and he's sent 
me a patch that does eliminate the failure. So I now have a libpipeline 
where all tests pass under Cygwin.

I still get the shared library warnings when building man-db. I haven't 
yet investigated that.
